This 2015 music mix, “A Deepening”, is a selection of some of my favorite sounds from the year, compiled in a way that is meant to move the listener ever more deeply into the experience.

What I consistently look for in music is something that surprises me a little, tickles my ears, makes my body move in unexpected ways, yet still has a smooth production quality and listening feel.

Most of the songs here are from the past year or two.
